Intro: C#m, A, E, B x2
C#m [ch]C#m/B[/ch] F#
in the lush virginia hills
ABC#m
they kept her as long as they could
[ch]C#m/B[/ch]
cause they knew when the white brother
F#AB
found white shell beads
C#mA
wrapped around her skin --
BC#
a life giving river --
ABC#
her body open as will his hand
ABC
and with a "goodbye" there she goes
C#BF#C#
she may betray all that she loves
BF#C#
and even wait for their savior to come
BF#C#
and in some things, maybe he'll be right
BF#A
but as always the thing that he loves
EBF#AE
he will change from her sunrise to clockwise to soul trading
BF#
still she'll lay down her body
AEC#
covering him all the same
C#m, A, E, BC#m [ch]C#m/B[/ch] F#
so hundreds of years go by
ABC#m
she's a girl out working her trade
[ch]C#m/B[/ch] F#
and she loses a little each day
ABC#m
to ghetto pimps and presidents
ABC#
who try and arouse her turquoise serpents
ABC
she can't recall what they represent
ABC
and when you ask, she won't know
she will betray .....
C#m, A, EBC#mAEB
oh .......
